The Mission We are entering an era where software doesn't just execute code - it spends money. AI Agents are autonomous, powerful, and unpredictable. A single logic bug in a background loop can burn through a startup's runway in hours.

Aden is building the safety layer that makes agentic AI viable for the enterprise. We are the "CFO in the code" - the infrastructure that allows engineering teams to ship powerful AI features without the fear of bankruptcy-level accidents.

The Challenge We aren't building a passive analytics dashboard. We are building active, high-velocity financial infrastructure. At Aden, you will work on low-latency middleware that sits in the critical path of AI execution. Our systems need to ingest streams of trace data, calculate complex unit economics in real-time (using Materialize views), and make split-second decisions to "kill" connections before they spiral out of control.

Why Join Us?

High Stakes Engineering: You aren't centering divs. You are building the "circuit breakers" for the world's most advanced LLM applications.

Immediate Impact: Our code literally saves our customers money the second it is installed. You will see the results of your work in the "Saved Spend" column every day.

The "Picks and Shovels" of AI: While everyone else fights to build the best chatbot, we are building the essential governance layer that every AI company will eventually need to survive due diligence and enterprise procurement.

Who We Are We are a team of technical founders and builders (PhD / CS background) who value shipping over slides. We are looking for engineers who want to touch the metal, understand the intricacies of LLM tokenomics, and build the standard for AI financial governance.

At Aden, artificial intelligence is not just a feature; it is the core driver of our infrastructure. We are seeking a deeply technical, highly analytical Applied AI Engineer to join our core engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for bridging the gap between cutting-edge AI research and production-grade enterprise software. You will design, build, and deploy the intelligent systems that power our infrastructure, focusing on large language models (LLMs), autonomous agent frameworks, and advanced data pipelines. You will tackle some of the most complex challenges in the industry: ensuring consistent, highly accurate, and secure outputs from probabilistic models within a strictly regulated enterprise environment. If you are passionate about building robust AI systems that can independently parse complex data, reason through multi-step transactional logic, and execute actions flawlessly, this is the role for you.
